Located in the heart of Glasgow Green, a beautiful old park on the bank of the River Clyde in the east part of Glasgow, the People's Palace is the museum of Glasgow's social history, featuring a collection of original artefacts, photos, film, and prints that offer wonderful insight into the lives of Glasgow residents from the end of 18th century to the 20th century.
The collections cover important aspects of city life such as Tobacco Lords and Trade Unions. Some of the most outstanding collections are Billy Connolly's Banana Boots and Dancing At The Barrowlands. After enjoying the museum, stop by the Winter Gardens for a stroll among exotic tropical plants and have a cup of coffee in the quaint coffee shop.
